UAE: Luxury serviced apartment collection Cheval has signed a lease agreement with Black Coffee by Café Younes to operate the restaurant at Cheval Maison – The Palm Dubai.
Black Coffee by Café Younes was created in 2018 by Café Younes – a home-grown coffee roasted in Lebanon. The brand has 12 outlets in Lebanon, three in Egypt, and two in Dubai in addition to the recent partnership with Cheval.
At Cheval Maison – The Palm Dubai, the outlet will be open to the public as well as guests, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. It will also offer home delivery service to addresses in the city.
An initial three year license has been signed for the property, with the intention of a long-term extension.
Mohammed S Alawadhi, managing director of Cheval Collection, said: “At Cheval Collection we are proud of our decades of hospitality experience in the sector and the heritage of Black Coffee by Café Younes makes it the perfect fit for our newest property. The group’s history gives us the confidence that it can create the welcoming atmosphere our guests expect and ensure that our first time of offering room service is a great success.”
Amin Younes, managing partner at Black Coffee by Café Younes, said “We are delighted to be partnering with Cheval Maison – The Palm, as we launch our third location in Dubai. Our expansion plans within the region mirror the ambitions of Cheval Collection as they continue to grow their portfolio. Black Coffee by Café Younes crafts a unique cup of coffee, accompanied by a diverse range of delicious food offerings throughout the day.”
Cheval Maison – The Palm Dubai opened in April this year. It was the group’s first international property and features 131 apartments ranging from one to three bedrooms, as well as a three-bedroom penthouse, all with fully equipped kitchens.
